Today’s Totally Random Lines

 

A proper squire! And who, and who? Which way looks he?

Don John

Much Ado About Nothing     Act I, Scene iii, Line 52

Don John has just been informed that Claudio is going to get married, and this is his reaction. And who, and who? Which way looks he is Don John’s way of asking who Claudio is going to marry. And who is he going to marry? Hero. That’s right, he’s going to marry a girl named Hero. There are four women in this play: Beatrice, Margaret, Ursula, and Hero. Claudio's going to marry the one named Hero.

I don’t know about you, but I think Hero is a pretty odd name for a woman. I mean, we don’t even use the word hero when we’re talking about a female hero; we use heroine. So I don’t know what’s up with that. I guess we just have to go with it. 

 

 

I can tell you one person who doesn't care who Claudio marries: it's our little hero named Mojo. He doesn't care at all. In fact, he slept right through Today's Totally Random Line, that's how much he doesn't give a hoot. 

I know,  you're saying he's the smart one, and you wish you could've slept through it too. Better luck next time.
